She gained prominence as a semi-finalist in the second season of France's popular talent show, The Voice: la plus belle voix, where she was mentored by Louis Bertignac.

Following this success, she released her debut album, Chambre 12, on March 2, 2015, which achieved commercial success and featured the chart-topping single "Avenir." In 2017, she collaborated with The Chainsmokers on the track "It Won't Kill Ya," further solidifying her place in the music industry. Louane continues to inspire with her artistry and resilience, honoring her late parents by pursuing her dreams.
